Back To the Past To Fall In Love

Chapter 12: Those Contradictions

But soon, she herself was startled first, because Meng Shitao suddenly said, “By the way, cumin, have you been to the hospital for this cold? It should be… alright?”

Only then did Xu Ziran remember that she was catching a cold. Of course, she knew that she had an ordinary cold, but at this time, this topic was indeed a bit sensitive.

However, before Xu Ziran could speak, Tian Jiaqi threw her chopsticks and said angrily, “Why are you talking? Of course Cumin just has a cold. She has had a cold for so long. If there is a problem, we are all dead. Do you have any brains?”

She didn’t show any sympathy in what she said, as if she was rudely teaching her grandson.

Meng Shitao definitely didn’t expect Tian Jiaqi to react like this, so she closed her mouth and stopped talking.

Not only did he stop talking, but he quickly packed up the dishes and walked away with his head down.

Xu Ziran glanced at the other party when she was leaving, and when she saw the tears in the other party’s eyes, it was obvious that she was about to cry.

Xu Ziran hesitated for a while, but finally didn’t say anything.

First, Tian Jiaqi’s stern tone just now was clearly for herself, and secondly, she really didn’t know how to soothe the fragile heart of a high school girl.

As the initiator, Tian Jiaqi’s face remained unchanged, and she continued to eat with a calm expression.

Xu Ziran felt a little weird, so he hesitated and said, “Meng Shitao seems to be crying.”

Tian Jiaqi picked the shredded chili peppers from the hot and sour potato shreds aside, and said indifferently, “It can be regarded as a curse when she said that to you. I didn’t scold her, why did she cry.”

Xu Ziran was full of complexities.

Yes, Tian Jiaqi has always been like this in the past. She is not good to everyone, but she is really good to Xu Ziran.

But she is not good to other people, but she can’t help other people like her in a rush, not only in terms of love, but also in friendship.

For example, Meng Shitao was scolded and cried by her every three days, but she never gave up. Later, when she went to university, the other side also had a circle of friends, and she was not bad for her.

Xu Ziran remembered what Qiu Yurou said later: “Actually, people who are more attractive are often those who are a little egotistical.”

In that case, Tian Jiaqi is definitely a selfish person, self-willed and doesn’t look down on others, but she just smiles at you sincerely, and you feel that everything she does can be forgiven.

—Well, man, man, it’s really strange.

When Xu Ziran was tangled here, Qiu Yurou also collected the dishes, said “eat”, and left directly.

Xu Ziran knew that it was really embarrassing for Qiu Yurou to stay in this situation, and she definitely couldn’t stop or follow her now, because Tian Jiaqi was staring at her.

She had to endure the pain not to watch the countdown, and said with a dry smile, “What’s wrong.”

Tian Jiaqi snorted and said, “Didn’t you say you should ignore Qiu Yurou, why did you let her have dinner with us?”

Xu Ziran looked blank: “Ah? Is that so?”

Tian Jiaqi puffed up her face and glared at Xu Ziran: “If she hadn’t robbed you of the seat next to you, we could be at the same table. Don’t you care about this?!”

Xu Ziran was stunned for two seconds, then suddenly realized.

She remembered.

It turned out to be for this.

The head teacher of their class is a physics teacher, but he is more like a condescending science male than a teacher. He can usually take care of things and never take care of them. As Xu Ziran recalls now, the deepest impression on him is that he wore a pair of flip-flops and a pair of flip-flops. An uneven white shirt, asking her “Xu Ziran, why are you late again” at the door of the classroom.

He arranged the positions in the beginning of the first year of high school in the order of the exercises. Everyone guessed that he would be too lazy to arrange positions after being divided into classes, and would just sit for the students themselves.

So Xu Ziran and Tian Jiaqi made an appointment, and then the two of them would be at the same table.

Sure enough, he really didn’t have a seat, but Xu Ziran and Tian Jiaqi were late that day. When they arrived, Qiu Yurou was already sitting at the same table as Xu Ziran, and the head teacher also came in to confirm the position, everything. became a foregone conclusion.

Xu Ziran had already forgotten about these things, but after Tian Jiaqi’s reminder, he thought about it again. At first, it was nothing, but Tian Jiaqi hated Qiu Yurou. In the next three years, even if Xu Ziran started talking to Qiu Yurou, Tian Jiaqi also loved Qiu Yurou. ignore.

Xu Ziran remembered the reason, and suddenly had a headache: “Hey, let’s forget about this.”

Tian Jiaqi looked unconvinced: “Why are you like this, what Qiu Yurou told you, you went to her side.”

Xu Ziran didn’t know what to say: “Why did this go to her side? Qiu Yurou is not bad, so I can’t blame her for this, how did she know we made an appointment.”

“Aren’t you angry when she knocked your cola straw off that day?”

“Ah, I just knocked out a straw, there’s no need to be angry for so long, right?”

“But she didn’t tell you that she made you use the straw that fell on the ground, and you were obviously very angry at the time!”

Tian Jiaqi frowned and looked at Xu Ziran, obviously very dissatisfied, but after staring at her for three seconds, she suddenly gave up her dissatisfied expression and said casually: “Forget it, you know that you have to be a good person, after all You are at the same table, and a good relationship is also necessary, otherwise it will be inconvenient at ordinary times.”

Xu Ziran was accustomed to Tian Jiaqi’s mood changes, knowing that she didn’t really let go of her situation, but made a scarecrow in her heart.

But even if she was scolded in her heart, she couldn’t treat Qiu Yurou like she did before, so she had to say sorry in her heart.

When Xu Ziran returned to the classroom, she was very relieved to see Qiu Yurou reading a novel in her seat. If the other party was not in her seat, she really didn’t know where to look.

Since he was in the position, at least he didn’t have to worry about deducting his ability points, because Tian Jiaqi still decided to comfort Meng Shitao, so Xu Ziran happily sat back in his seat and secretly got up to read what novel Qiu Yurou was reading.

Now that she knew the reason for her conflict with Qiu Yurou, the next step was to resolve the conflict.

To tell the truth, this kind of thing, it is difficult to say that it is a contradiction.

What’s the matter.

– Grab a seat, drop a straw?

Xu Ziran rubbed his cheeks, feeling that he was being stingy when he mentioned these things now.

So she had to catch a glimpse of the name of the novel Qiu Yurou was reading and said, “You also like to read this kind of novel, what is it about?”

Qiu Yurou glanced at Xu Ziran and said, “It’s hard to say.”

The tone is a little cold.

Xu Ziran bit the bullet and asked again, “Ancient romance?”

Qiu Yurou turned the cover to Xu Ziran, and then continued to read the book in silence.

Xu Ziran knew that Qiu Yurou, when he made up his mind on a certain matter, would have a hard time compromising on stalking, so he had to give up temporarily and picked out a package of snacks to eat from the gifts everyone gave.

She picked and picked, and finally took a bag of Mai Lisu. After thinking about it, she thought that Mai Lisu was too sweet, and flipped through it again, and found a bag of roast beef jerky.

Then she suddenly remembered that Qiu Yurou especially likes to eat this kind of roast beef jerky.

Xu Ziran remembered that when she went to Qiu Yurou’s house for the first time, she was surprised by the cabinet full of snacks in her house. Qiu Yurou looked like a cold goddess outside. The most common of these snacks is the small packet of roast beef jerky.

This kind of beef jerky is hard and salty. It tastes toothless and has no nutrition, but Qiu Yurou can chew on it all afternoon, wearing a white coat while reading a large medical book while nibbling on the image of beef jerky, which has caused Xu Ziran a huge impact. impact.

Seeing this, Xu Ziran suddenly had an idea, opened a package and handed it to Qiu Yurou and asked, “Do you want to eat this?”

Qiu Yurou’s eyes showed a look of struggle that was quite obvious to Xu Ziran, but it was obvious that the other party was not such a person without self-control, because after a flash of struggle, she still shook her head naturally and said, “No more. .”

Xu Ziran unpacked and ate it by himself, thinking about countermeasures while gnawing.

She suddenly remembered that in fact, Qiu Yurou ten years later is the kind of person who likes to tell things clearly.

This is just the opposite of Tian Jiaqi. Tian Jiaqi has always believed that time can dilute all conflicts, love and hate, so even if you don’t make it clear, as long as you have a tendency to behave, you can acquiesce that things have been resolved or ended.

Qiu Yurou is not like this. It can be said that Qiu Yurou’s desire for everything to be clear is almost like an obsessive-compulsive disorder. As long as something is still unclear at a certain point, she will take the trouble to make it clear. If it is not clear, she will fight to the end.

The stark contrast between the two on this point made Xu Ziran wonder for a long time what the standard of making friends was.

Of course, Xu Ziran felt that Qiu Yurou would not be the same ten years later, but as the saying goes, seeing the old age at the age of three, in terms of personality, I don’t think it will change much.

So she considered it for a while, and said to Qiu Yurou, “By the way, are you mad at me for what happened before?”

Sure enough, hearing Xu Ziran say that, Qiu Yurou was obviously moved.

Although she was still holding the book, she didn’t turn a page. After struggling for a while, she said, “What did you say before, did you mean Tian Jiaqi and why you hate me?”

Xu Ziran gave a compliment in his heart and thought to himself: There seems to be a drama.

So she told Qiu Yurou the agreement she had made with Tian Jiaqi to sit at the same table.

She thinks this reasoning is a bit strange, because a lot of subjective emotion is added to the narrative to show that they are not authentic.

Qiu Yurou heard this, but stayed there for a long time before she said, “So that’s what happened.”

Seeing that Qiu Yurou’s expression didn’t seem relieved, Xu Ziran added, “I can’t blame you for this, it’s a unilateral decision made by us.”

Qiu Yurou’s dazed expression gradually changed to frowning, her eyelids dropped slightly, and her long eyelashes covered the look in her eyes.

But looking at the shriveled mouth and the corners of the mouth, it’s clearly… It seems a little unconvinced?
